[edit] Stage Antics
This was the most theatrical tour of them all, these are the elements it contained:
-2 live dancers dressed with plastic breasts, who performed piano for The Golden Age Of Grotesque, Danced for Sweet Dreams and played Floor Toms for Doll Dagga...
-A podium (there were 2 different designs) In which Manson sang The Fight Song with mickey mouse ears (second outfit)
-Manson played saxophone at the end of The Golden Age Of Grotesque, apart from the guitar and a strange banjo like instrument he used for Minute Of Decay, this is the third instrument he plays after the guitar On a live show, the first being A flute for Kinderfeld on the Dead To The World tour.
-A manequinn Robot was used for Tourniquet.
-Manson would rise again to a great height as in Disposable Teens, for Para-Noir, which also featured 2 live vocals dressed as if they were conjoined.
